Really long or short, I didn't count, but enjoy the chapter!
POV Change: Trina Parker
I woke up bright and early from sleeping in the bed in the fancy hotel Raven checked us into. It was quite comfortable, to be honest, but what I didn't get was why Raven would spend his money on these rooms, but I ain't one to complain. When I woke up, Tyler was still asleep, and I decided to go check on Raven and Jade in their room. I walk over next door, and opened the door, to see Raven and Jade still sleeping. I blushed at the sight because Jade was sleeping close to Raven, and he didn't seem to mind at all. Jade's head was resting on Raven's chest like it was a pillow, and I find it very disturbing. After a few minutes, Jade and Raven woke up. Raven noticed I was at the door, and glared at me, while Jade was rising from the bed.
"What's with the surprised face?" Jade asked
"She must've have seen us sleeping" Raven assumed
"That must explain her red face" Jade teased
I was still in a daze on how Raven and Jade got along, not to mention with me and Tyler too. After a little while Tyler woke up and came into the room. When he came in I was hoping he didn't see my blush.
"I'm gonna go take a shower" Raven said as he got some spare clothes
"Yea, me too, I'll see you guys later" I replied while I walked out of Raven and Jade's room and to the door of mine and Tyler's room. When I arrived to the room, I took out the spare clothes I had in my bag, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
~Half an Hour Later~
When I finished my shower, I was walking out of the bathroom with blue jeans on, and a light red tank top on. I also saw that Tyler, Jade, and Raven were in the room.
"You sure took your time" Tyler teased for how long I took a shower
"Oh, shut up" I replied a little annoyed
"Let's get going, we have places to go to" Jade said
I nodded, grabbed my jacket, and we headed for the car. Raven was driving again, which I knew ticked off Tyler. After about fifteen minutes, we went to the location we were told to go to, which was an alley way, but there wasn't much.
"Why would the Silver Solace be in a place like this?" I asked confused
"I don't know, but it seems to be a little dark in here" Jade answered
"Why don't we ask the guy who lives in the dark?" Tyler said sarcastically
We looked over at Raven, who was standing with his hands in his pockets , and his eyes closed. After a few minutes, Raven's eyes opened and he walked toward the wall at the back of the alley. He knocked on the bricks, then pushed on one making a door open up.
"Here we go" Raven said
"How did you know?" I asked
"I closed out all my senses besides hearing" he answered "If you listen closely, you can here wind going through the cracks, leading into the hall"
"You make it sound like you were raised as if you were in the military" Tyler replied
"I'll take that as a compliment" Raven replied as he walked down into the hall revealed from the hidden door "Well? Are you guys coming or what?"
"Right" Tyler, Jade, and I said simultaneously as we ran to catch up to him.
~30 Minutes Later~
"We have been in this hall forever!" I whined
"We're almost out, just try and follow me" I heard Raven say
"And how do you know where you're going?" Tyler asked him
"I can see in the dark" Raven simply answered "That and my eyes are able to be seen easily in the dark, if not obvious"
"That would explain the red light I keep seeing" I replied
"Well, if you want to get out so bad, just run up ahead" Raven said
"Great!" I yelled out as I ran up ahead, but… I ended up running straight into a wall, which caused Raven to laugh a little.
"Why you..!" I ran at him full speed fueled by anger, and jumped to kick him in his head "Now you're gonna get it!" I was about to hit him, until he grabbed my ankle, and now I was stuck in mid-air.
"Hey, come on now, can't I have some fun every once and a while?" Raven replied
"Put me down!" I squealed
"Fine" Raven said as he flipped me, and I inexplicably landed on my feet
"What was that for?!" I yelled at him
"Come on, can't I have some fun every once and a while?" he asked
"Well, I guess" I said while pouting
And Raven, Tyler, and Jade started to laugh a little
POV Change: Jade Hunter
I was glad Raven was getting along with Trina and Tyler, even though he does annoy them sometimes. Anyways, we made it out of the dark hallway after what it felt like forever, and walked into a giant fancy room filled with expensive furniture.
"Finally we're out of that hallway" I said as I stretched out
"Raven sure is a quiet one" Trina whispered to me to make sure Raven and Tyler doesn't hear
"Yea, but I like it" I replied as I looked at Raven with his hands in his pockets and looking so calm, and collective
After a few minutes, a mysterious couple appeared in front of us from thin air.
"Oh! It looks like we have guests dear!" the woman said to the man next to her
"Ah! Make yourselves feel right at home!" the man said to us
"Thank you!" Me and Trina said in unison as we sat down on the furniture in the room
I sat down and felt quite comfortable, even though it has to be weird to walk into a giant room, from a long dark hallway that starts at an alley way. Me and Trina started to talk about how our day was, and stuff like that, while Raven and Tyler sat quietly.
"It's been so quiet here because we don't get that many visitors here" the woman said with a darkly grin, then suddenly iron grips came out of the furniture, and we were stuck, everyone was worried, well, everyone except Raven.
The man and woman started to laugh evilly, and then the man said "You fell right into our trap, you fools!"
"Demigod blood, always our favorite meal" the woman said as she licked her lips
"Wait, you guys are vampires?!" I yelled out
"Yes, we are, and this is going to be a great dinner" the man answered
The couple noticed that Raven was the only one not panicking, and raised an eyebrow curiously
"You there" the man said while pointing to Raven "Are you not terrified of us, or are you too scared to even be able to talk?"
"Wrong for both answers" Raven answered as the metal grip around him vaporized. The man and woman looked shocked at what just happened, and looked at him with blood red eyes
"How was that possible?! That metal was made from high graded material!" the man yelled out
"That's a detail you don't need to know" Raven replied in a calm voice
"You tell us right now, or we will drain your blood!" the woman shouted
"Try me" Raven said while smirking
They both grew out their vampire fangs and their fingers were now claws. They charged at Raven with unimaginable speed, and yelled "You will die tonight!"
Right when they made it to Raven, Raven jumped up into the air and summoned his scythe. He slowly landed on the other side of the room, and held his scythe over his shoulder.
"As I thought. It is you, the famed Dracula and his wife, Loran, if I'm not mistaken" I heard him say
"But I thought he was just a myth!" Trina yelled
"Wrong. Dracula is real, but none of those stories are true. He is an experiment gone wrong and has had a lust for blood for centuries, which has allowed him to live for all those years. The blood he drinks from his victims, keeps him in a single age so he can't die. He is known as the 'King of Vampires' because he was the first vampire, and he actually made the vampire race by biting humans in the neck" Raven explained
"So you do know about us boy" Dracula said "But we are not the only ones here"
Dracula snapped his fingers, and stone gargoyles came from the wall and surrounded Raven.
"This is the only thing you can get to fight me?" Raven asked in a bored tone
"No, but we don't want to waste our energy on a mere demigod like you" Loran answered. Raven laughed a little, and spun his scythe with great ease. He spun it around his hands in a quick motion cutting each gargoyle into little pieces (if you want to know how Raven swung his scythe around watch this video for an example to help visualize it: watch?v=pYW2GmHB5xs.)
"Weak" Raven scoffed as he put his scythe over his shoulder
"You may have some skill after all" Dracula said "But can you finish this?!"
After he said that there were several vampires around Raven, with fangs out, and claws at the ready, looking bloodthirsty.
POV Change: Tyler Williams
I am so surprised at Raven's skill, but also extremely mad at him for doing this alone. I mean come on! He could die in any moment! After his attack with the gargoyles, Dracula summoned his vampires on him, which ticked me off, because I want to have some fun too!
"Typical for the vampire king" I heard Raven say
"Big talk for someone so small" Dracula replied. After Dracula said that he snapped his fingers, and all the vampires charged at Raven, completely leaving him no openings.
"Raven! Get out of there!" I yelled out
Raven closed his eyes and said "I guess I'll have to take it up a notch" He opened his eyes and they're now a mix of blood red and crimson. Raven spun in a circle, and started a running pose. A few seconds later, he was just standing there.
"Well, what are you going to do now, boy?" Loran said while licking her lips
Raven raised his hand and started to count down with his fingers, 3… 2… 1.
After the last finger went down, the vampires burst open with blood flowing, falling and laying on the floor not moving. The blood of the vampires even crept up towards Raven.
"Never underestimate me" Raven said
"Ah! If it isn't the Son of Death" Dracula said "I should have known this earlier, but if I kill you now, my reputation would grow greatly!"
"You can try" Raven taunted
"Oh, but you don't know about me, all you know is my name, and I have these with me" Dracula replied while pointing at Jade, Trina, and me.
"Don't try it" Raven growled a little
"Oh, but I will" Dracula said with an evil smile "If you move another inch, I will kill each one of them"
Raven sighed and answered with a nod.
"Good, now drop the weapon" Dracula said. Raven did as he asked and put down his scythe, Dracula wanted it to be farther so he told Raven to kick it to him. Raven followed and kicked his scythe to Dracula, who picked it up and examined it.
"A fine weapon for the Son of Death" he said while holding it.
After a few minutes he gave the scythe to Loran.
"Now, onto business" Dracula mumbled. He ran right at Raven with his claws, but Raven put up a defensive stance. When Dracula made contact with Raven, he stopped when one of his claws were only hitting his arms, which were in a defensive x.
"To be honest, I thought you would put up a better fight" Raven said
"Oh? Then look behind you" Dracula said smirking. Raven look over his shoulder to see Dracula behind him, and used his claws to cut Raven's back. Dracula then started to do several jabs around his body while he was immobilized. After his jabs, he kicked Raven to the wall.
"Damn it" Raven said as he was leaning on the wall
"Oh, but I am not finished with you yet" Dracula said with an evil grin. He snapped his fingers, and Loran came out holding Raven's scythe. Dracula took the scythe, and pointed it at Raven. He threw the scythe at Raven, and the scythe hits his heart.
"Raven!" Trina and Jade yelled
Dracula was now laughing evilly.
"You damn basterd" Raven said as he was barely alive and coughing up some blood
"Oh? You're still alive?" Dracula said "Well, now for you to enjoy the show"
Dracula walked up to Jade, and pointed a knife to her neck. He was laughing manically, as the knife was going closer and closer to her neck.
POV Change: Jade Hunter
I looked at Raven and a black aura was forming around him.
"Don't lay a finger on her" Raven said demonically
"And what are you going to do?" Dracula said as he started to laugh darkly
"That's it. You crossed the line" Raven replied darkly
He raised his hand and grabbed the handle of his scythe, and he did something unimaginable. Raven pulled the scythe out of his body, which would have killed anyone, even a god if hit in the right spot. He started to walk slowly towards Dracula as his scythe started to break down into black particles and float around his right arm.
"Now I will tell you one more time. Don't. Lay. A. Finger. On. Her." Raven said in a demonic voice, which scared Trina
"How are you able to recover so quickly?!" Dracula yelled "But no matter you will just die"
Dracula snapped his fingers and vampires started to come out of every corner and charged at Raven. Dracula also grabbed me as he was backing into a corner. Raven was walking slowly and every time a vampire would almost strike him, he would grab it's throat and throw it to the wall, and if one was coming towards him, when he walked past one of the vampires, it would just die with a cut on the neck and body with blood flowing out. Raven was coming closer and closer to Dracula, which caused Dracula to let go of me, and stumble backwards.
When Raven made it to Dracula, he said "Tonight, is the night you will die"
Dracula tried to rush away by jumping over Raven, but Raven grabbed his ankle and slammed him into the ground. Raven started by throwing Dracula to the wall, and walked towards him, his right arm having black particles floating around it. Once he was close enough to Dracula, he punched him several times, and after he finished, he grabbed Dracula's neck and raised him up off the ground and said he said "Go to the pits of hell and slowly rot in a cage over the flames of Tartarus"
When Raven finished saying that a dark light came right through Dracula and blood started to burst out of the old vampire. Raven dropped Dracula and walked a few steps back and a dark hole appeared below Dracula
"You will pay for this day Raven Scarlet!" Dracula yelled at Raven, while being sucked into a dark hole leading into the gates of hell "You will pay!"
After a few minutes, all the vampires ran out of the room, and into the sunlight, ending up dying. When Raven started to calm down, he walked to Tyler, Trina, and me
"You guys alright?" he asked
"Yea, but what about you?" I asked as I pointed to where his scythe has hit him.
"I'm fine just a little light headed from the loss of blood" he answered
I then noticed his right arm was now black, like a demons, and yelled "And what happened to your arm?!"
"I don't know, but I do know that I won't have my scythe for a long while" he answered
"What was that back there?" Tyler asked him
"I don't know" he answered "I just… I don't want to talk about it"
"Alright then, let's go and find the silver solace and get out of here, the blood here is kinda scaring me" Trina said
"Right" Tyler replied
